Soils and Paleosols

open access: yes, 2021
This article reviews the nature of modern and ancient soils. Soils are naturally occurring bodies that mantle most of the land surface of the Earth. They are found on virtually every part of the Earth’s land surface, other than areas covered by water bodies (lakes and rivers), glacial ice, or steep slopes in mountainous terrain.

Classification of paleosols

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1993
Despite increased interest in paleosols during the past decade, no satisfactory classification is in current use. Presented here is a largely descriptive classification system that utilizes those pedogenic features that have the highest preservation potential in the rock record.

Paleosols of Bermuda

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1961
Sayles recognized five buried soils that stratigraphically separate eolianites and interbedded marine limestones in Bermuda. He considered that the paleosols represent interglacial ages or interstadials. Some soils were considered residual, and some accretionary.

Classification of paleosols — A comment

Quaternary International, 1998
Abstract The paper ‘Classification of Paleosols’ by Mack et al. (1993, hereafter called ‘the authors’), read from a soil scientist's scope, evokes considerable criticism, some of which follows below.

Paleosols and pedostratigraphy

Applied Soil Ecology, 2018
Abstract Paleopedology and pedostratigraphy are devoted to the use of buried and relict soils in interpreting the record of environmental conditions that are different from the current ones. As such, paleosols may be used in models that aim at predicting future earth system reactions to changing environmental conditions.

Significance of Precambrian Paleosols

1992
The economic significance of Precambrian paleosols largely lies in their common association with stratabound uranium ore. Their significance to resolution of Earth history depends upon their origin. There are four possible genetic models for known paleosols, i.e., the biologic, abiologic, exhalative, and bolide-impact models. Biologic soil formation is
